Our First Home - July 2017

RIVER COMMONS PERMANENT HOUSING

I contacted Carly at River Commons to see about partnering on a space in their transitional housing unit. The unit that I was given to work on was completely empty. I started a GoFundMe account and used the funds raised to furnish and decorate this unit at River Commons. In July of 2017 I started to work on the space. The day that I handed over the keys they had a client move into the space. When I checked in to see how she liked her space, I was told that she had her items in storage while she was homeless, but she lost everything because she could not pay. She did not know how she was going to furnish her space, so she was very grateful for the work that Welcome Home Dayton did for her.
